Messrs.  Elder  and  Shepard's  first  catalogue  of  standard 
and  beautiful  editions  for  private  libraries  *  *  *  * 
No.  i  Fall  of  MDCCCCI 


OOKS  as  sources  of  knowl-  CV- 
edge  or  of  pleasure,  worthy 
of  fine  editions  and  beauti- 
ful bindings  —  this  is  the 
motif  of  the  following 
pages.  The  great  histories, 
memoirs,  classics  of  prose 
and  verse,  many  in  the  great  and  best  edi- 
tions, all  in  creditable  form,  are  here  briefly 
mentioned  and  passed  in  review.  Some  few 
rare  or  antiquarian  volumes,  first  editions 
and  purely  collector's  works  there  are,  but 
more  are  represented  those  substantial  works 
of  general  interest,  valuable  additions  to 
one's  library  —  and  many  dainty  volumes, 
with  exquisite  illustrations  and  beautiful 
bindings,  suggest  the  holiday  times. 

It  will  be  understood  that  this  catalogue 
is  not  intended  to  represent  our  stock  in  any 
complete  sense,  our  miscellaneous  collection 
not  being  touched  in  the  least,  and  already 
many  fine  and  desirable  works  are  in  trans- 
portation that  were  secured  too  late  to  be 
included.

Notes  by  Mr.  L.   Manouk  relative  to 

n  (Armenian  (Manuscript  (gooft  of 


Consisting  of  466  pages,  on  classic  parchment,  size  9^ 
inches,  supposed    to  have  been  executed 
prior  to  1000  A.  D. 

IN  reference  to  this  book,  I  will  first  try  to  give  a  period  in  Armenian 
history  which  will  enable  the  reader  to  form  some  idea  of  its 
antiquity  and  value  as  a  manuscript  in  connection  with  Christ 
It  is  a  fact  that  the  Armenians  were  the  first  nationality  to  embrace 
Christianity  during  Christ's  life.  History  as  well  as  the  New  Testament 
gives  ample  proof  for  the  above  statement.  During  Christ's  life  the 
Armenian  king,  Apgar,  falls  sick,  and  every  effort  to  cure  him  fails. 
One  night  he  dreams  that  the  only  way  for  cure  is  to  believe  in  the 
teachings  of  Christ.  He  therefore  sends  word  to  Christ  that  he  believes 
that  the  only  cure  for  him  is  through  Him,  but  is  unable  to  see  and 
touch  His  almighty  hand,  as  he  lies  sick  in  bed.  After  receiving  the 
word  Christ  sends  his  Tateos  disciple  and  cures  him.  After  his  recovery 
the  king  makes  a  proclamation  throughout  Armenia  and  the  neighbor- 
ing nations  to  embrace  Christianity.  It  is  thus  that  the  Armenians 
become  Christian  as  a  whole  nationality.  The  book  itself  is  a  master- 
piece both  in  ecclesiastic  literature  and  art  of  those  olden  times.  One 
need  not  know  or  speak  the  language  to  behold  the  evenness,  accuracy 
and  gracefulness  of  the  writing  which  has  probably  taken  half  the  life- 
time of  a  monk  to  produce  such  a  work.  It  was  the  custom  of  the 
Armenian  monks,  in  about  1000  A.  D.,  to  devote  or  give  their  time, 
according  to  their  talents,  to  some  service  to  God.  It  is  to  this  end 
that  the  artist  monk  has  produced  this  book,  which  we  may  call  a  mas- 
terpiece in  this  rare  line.  I  say  this  because  I  admit  that  there  are  two 
or  three  copies  of  similar  books  in  a  few  national  libraries  in  Europe,  of 
which  I  have  personally  seen  the  one  in  Paris  (Bibliothique  National), 
but  even  an  ordinary  lover  of  art  could  see  the  superiority  of  this  copy. 
In  the  year  1700  A.  D.  a  certain  Manoog  Agha,  then  head  of  the 
Armenian  church  in  Smyrna,  goes  to  Jerusalem  to  visit  the  head  patri- 
arch of  his  church.  There,  after  receiving  the  honors  due  to  his  posi- 
tion, he  is  presented  with  the  present  book  and  a  painting  on  copper  ; 
the  latter,  which  was  the  work  of  a  celebrated  Italian  artist,  being  dark, 
does  not  suit  his  uncultivated  taste,  so  he  orders  a  new  and  bright 
painting  of  some  saints  to  be  painted  on  the  back  of  it.  After  the  death 
of  said  Manoog  the  picture  falls  into  more  fortunate  hands,  that  sees 
the  fineness  of  the  dark  figure  of  Christ,  which  has  been  slightly  soiled, 
and  after  the  necessary  treatment  brings  to  light,  as  previously  men- 
tioned, the  work  of  a  most  celebrated  Italian  artist. 


I  give  this  little  anecdote  of  the  painting  to  illustrate  to  what 
extent  this  rare  manuscript  was  considered  even  in  those  early  days.  In 
regard  to  the  binding  of  the  book,  I  will  say  that  it  is  comparatively 
new  to  the  manuscript  itself.  This  can  be  readily  seen  in  examining 
the  leather  and  other  parts  of  the  binding,  and  moreover  with  a  small 
part  of  the  book  (consisting  of  about  half  a  dozen  pages)  which  has 
been  inserted  either  to  fill  a  missing  space  or  to  add  a  new  part  to  the 
book.  This  small  space  which  I  referred  to  bears  also  testimony  of 
its  recentness  of  the  binding,  as  the  papers  used  bear  the  mark  of  an 
early  Italian  paper  factory.  Another  proof  of  the  antiquity  of  the  book 
is  well  illustrated  in  some  of  the  pictures  and  ornaments  of  the  book. 
For  instance,  on  the  first  page,  opposite  the  first  picture  of  David,  you 
will  see  a  small  piece  of  art,  consisting  of  the  commencement  of  a  cer- 
tain phrase  :  the  characters  in  this  are  in  the  form  of  birds'  heads  and 
fishes'  tails,  a  specimen  so  freely  used  in  early  Persian  and  Hindoo  art. 
You  will  find  these  ornaments  of  art  more  or  less  nearly  on  every  page, 
which  makes  this  book  interesting  to  every  leaf  of  fine  parchment. 

I  will  here  describe  how  the  Armenians  come  to  possess  such  fine 
art  in  reference  to  their  Christian  church.  It  is  through  the  fact  that 
their  church  has  been  the  sole  and  only  element  to  keep  their  unity 
and  existence.  From  their  earliest  days  of  their  history  we  will  notice 
that  their  kingdom  has  been  a  series  of  falls  and  ups,  sometimes  raided 
by  Persians  and  nearly  wiped  out  of  existence,  and  other  times  oppos- 
ing the  powerful  Kingdom  of  Rome.  Their  form  of  government  has 
so  often  changed  that,  were  it  not  to  the  strong  belief  of  their  church, 
it  would  be  hard  to  trace  a  nation  so  oppressed  to  this  very  day  ;  but 
as  I  aforesaid,  through  their  church,  they  come  to  the  present  era  as  a 
nation,  having  preserved  their  religion,  history  and  traditions,  so  it  is 
not  surprising  to  hear  about  the  oppression  of  Armenians  in  Asia 
Minor,  the  massacres,  outrages  and  other  cruelties  perpetrated  by  the 
Turks,  merely  on  account  of  their  Christian  belief  and  their  persistence 
not  to  abandon  their  church.  L.  H.  MANOUK.

The  appearance  of  Baskerville's  publications  gave  rise  to  no  little  con- 
temporary controversy.  Yet  it  is  difficult  to  understand  the  grounds  of  any 
adverse  criticism.  As  regards  type,  there  is  very  little  to  choose  between 
Caslon's  Roman  and  that  of  Baskerville,  while  the  Italic  of  Baskerville 
was  unquestionably  the  most  beautiful  type  that  had  ever  been  seen  in  Eng- 
land. But  there  are  also  other  features  of  excellence.  His  books  are  sim- 
plicity itself,  but  printed  with  deep,  wide  margins  and  spaced  with  the  very 
best  effect.

"'Les  Girondins,'  that  charming  romance  (  he  calls  it  a  history), 
which  knowing  it  all  by  reading  a  dozen  real  histories,  and  a  hundred 
memoirs  of  the  period,  yet  carries  one  on,  partly  by  subject,  partly  by 
style.  I  suppose  that  he  is  always  false,  but  in  '  Les  Girondins  '  one  is 
beguiled  into  forgetting  that  great  literary  sin  :  for  it  is  worse  than  a 
fault."  John  Mitford.  Friendships,  etc.,  ii,  '97.
